ooo! Fabulous!

What a great place to find orchids! What part of Colombia are you finding these orchids in? Or are these pictures from random travels?

these are from three different travels, all of them just a couple of hours (tops) away from medellin. and i'm going to another one tomorrow with a group from the local orchid society, so expect a lot (i hope) of new photos soon

LOL. If you ever visited Colombia....or Ecuador,Peru etc it would take an entire platoon of marines to drag you back to The Empire.
